Eric Michael Moran, the subject of this article, died during the evening or early morning hours of October 31 - November 1, 2020. I know this because my wife knows his mother, who lives in the same town we live in. He died at his mother's house. I have been looking for an obituary ever since, to no avail. Without a published source, I do not want to make the change to the article. Does anyone know a source that can confirm his death? Perhaps the University of Washington athletic department?

Hi @Jeff in CA:, I suggest looking at local newspapers in the area he lived in when he passed away and his hometown. Sometimes a Google News search will find obituaries. Try different combinations of his name as news sources might decide to use various combinations of initials and middle names. You can also ask for help at Wikipedia:WikiProject Sports, a group dedicated to improving sports-based articles on Wikipedia.
Since a source hasn't been found to verify this information, I am going to close this request edit ticket. I am also adding a connected contributor banner at the top so Jeff in CA doesn't need to declare their COI everytime they request an edit to this talk page. If Jeff finds a source, please follow the instructions at Template:Request edit/Instructions to post a new edit request. If you have any additional questions, you can go to the help desk. Thanks and happy editing! Z1720 (talk) 17:56, 29 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@PK-WIKI: Would you be able to locate any reference or acknowledgement by the U of Washington athletic program of the death of Eric Moran 3 1/2 years ago? Jeff in CA (talk) 22:09, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
